Abstract

Econophysics is a new area developed recently by the cooperation between economists, mathematicians and physicists. It's not a tool to predict future prices of stocks and exchange rates. It applies idea, method and models in Statistical Physics and Complexity to analyze data from economical phenomena. In this paper, three examples from three active main topics in Econophysics are presented first. Then using these examples, we analyze the role of Physics in Econophysics. Some comments and emphasis on Physics of Econophysics are included. New idea of network analysis for economy systems is proposed, while the actual analysis is still in progress.
